Fujikura’s 70S, the world’s first fully automatic fusion splicer

Created May 26, 2017

Fujikura Europe’s 70S, the world’s first fully automatic fusion splicer and the only machine to withstand drop testing on all six sides from a height of 70cm, requires just four operational steps per splice and reduces splicing time to just six seconds.

The most notable features of the 70S are its true core-alignment performance, user customisable features, and its fully ruggedized exterior, which is dust, shock and rain resistant. The 70S also features an automated wind protector and a tube heater which has been developed for quicker splicing cycles and to reduce the number of operational steps.
